Erik Parker is set to launch a new solo exhibition at the HOCA Foundation in Hong Kong. Entitled “Millenial’s Dilemma,” the presentation takes the name of an original artwork by Parker and will present a total of 28 artworks that span his 20-year-career as an artist. One of the more notable pieces in the show include two rare works on paper from KAWS’ own personal collection. Altogether, the works “humorously take jabs at current themes such as media culture and climate change,” said HOCA in a statement.

Preview select paintings in the slideshow above. “Millennial’s Dilemma” will commence on November 15 up until December 7. Elsewhere in art, The Campana Brothers are set to launch two new exhibitions in Rome, Italy.
